EMISSIONGUARD™ Purge Panels
Minimize buffer gas consumption with CPI’s EMISSIONGUARD™ purge panels. Each panel helps control and monitor inert gas, such as nitrogen, into the packing assemblies of a reciprocating compressor, while also tracking the vent pressure and vent flow rate. A single panel can serve between one to four packing cases and are available for all gases including corrosive and flammable gases. EMISSIONGUARD™ also enables condition-based maintenance, reduces unplanned down time, and satisfies environmental regulations.
To ensure optimal performance and risk mitigations, CPI has selected premium materials and components to create a durable purge panel system that complies with industry legislative standards. ATEX registered, and API 618 compliant, the EMISSIONGUARD™ purge panel can function autonomously without electrical components and contains an automatic control valve to maintain buffer gas pressure at least one bar higher than the vent pressure.
